Now, it may have been necessary if Venezuela has two Russian bombers loaded with nukes and sitting on the tarmac, but, without such actions to justify such an activity it was completely inappropriate and more than a message about drug cartels.
I would expect this activity to be discussed at the meeting in Budapest. Russia knows the USA has this capacity, so it is important there are measurable boundaries for safety guardrails.
Accidents happen and tragedy becomes wars. It maybe exactly what the communists are waiting for; a near border war with the USA.
This activity is reckless because it is unnecessary. The land based nukes of the USA are far more covert, a reason for China to float spy balloons over our sovereign land, and a constant threat to Venezuela than the B-52 could ever be. This activity is reckless and dangerous in an expression of open aggression. This is not about drug cartels. So, what the devil is Hegseth doing?
The USA is not muscle bound and never has been. I take it the Stratofortress was ready. Readiness is the height of success for any free world country. So?
